Abstract

En este artículo sometimos a escrutinio el concepto de “racionalidad” como ejercicio de la razón. Conforme avanzamos en la investigación quedó claro, que esa razón está fundada en un conjunto de valores y principios que le dan validez, como decisiones correctas, a nuestras acciones fundadas en esa razón. De esa manera, vimos la necesidad de distinguir entre razón instrumental y razón comunicativa como lo propone Habermas, para comprender que esa razón instrumental se valida con la pretensión de alcanzar el "principio económico". Llegamos a la conclusión que esa razón instrumental está determinada por las condiciones históricas en que se encuentra la sociedad. Así propusimos una razón instrumental capitalista o racionalidad capitalista como la razón que guía el conjunto de acciones económicas que se toman en el marco de una sociedad determinada por la acumulación de capital, con la pretensión de lograr el principio económico. De ahí lo que se hizo fue confrontar esa racionalidad con su capacidad de alcanzar el principio económico en las condiciones históricas de su desarrollo.
